Banana-flavoured Apricots with Coconut Cream Recipe

Here is a classic vegetarian/vegan recipe for a dessert of apricots soaked in banana-flavoured soya milk served with creamed coconut and lemon juice in place of cream.

Delicious and easy to make, this shows that vegan dishes do not always have to be complicated to prepare.
